Medicine?<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I find "research" books about the evils of modern medicine absurd. Take for example, this:</span><br /><a style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" href="http://www.amazon.com/Murder-injection-medical-conspiracy-against/dp/B0006RDHSO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1251145402&amp;sr=8-1">Murder by injection: The story of the medical conspiracy against America</a><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">. This is being read by a seriously intelligent friend of mine, and I have another friend who has not read this (to my knowledge), but who definitely takes these principals to heart.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" >"But why, Melissa," I can hear you asking (again), "could something like this be funny? People worked hard on this information and you are just skewed by our modern sensibilities." That is a somewhat fair point, I suppose. But let me explain, using a review I've found.<br /><br /></span><blockquote style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-style: italic;">This is a very fine book. Eustace Mullins is an expert researcher. Previous to this book he was the FIRST person to reveal the true nature of the Federal Reserve (which has nothing to do with Federal). </span></blockquote><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I'm not even going to dignify this with a reply.</span><br /><blockquote style="font-style: italic; font-family: trebuchet ms;">In this book he details the history of how control of the medicinal market has been won by the FDA and the AMA (and similar organizations in other Nations), and how the healing of citizens has been put in the hands of the Government rather than in the hands of the citizens themselves. </blockquote><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">That does make some sense, actually. I can see how a </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; font-family: trebuchet ms;">doctor</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> (not just any old yahoo writing a review or a book!) could have some concerns about this. I mean, there are truly useful treatments in other countries that are not permitted within the US because they haven't passed certain tests here. Certainly. And visa-versa.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">However, I'm a teacher, and I therefore deal with the American public. Frankly, most of us are freakin' morons, and I'm not always excluding myself in that group. People do not make their decisions wisely. How many people have you seen this week riding a motorcycle while wearing nothing but a tank top &amp; shorts? How many people got a budget boob job that scars and looks nasty? How many people are there addicted to pain pills? Or how many people stay in an abusive relationship? Or have too much credit card debt? I'm not even saying this is uniquely American because it's not. I'm saying that not everyone is capable of making the best decisions for themselves medically, and many people choose to refrain from making good decisions otherwise. I suppose that IS each individual's choice, or even a family's choice, but that doesn't mean I want someone one a handful of Vicodin driving around town.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">This is the sentence that really clinched this for me, though:</span><br /><br /><blockquote style="font-weight: bold; font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Their choices for treatment have been downsized to that of Allopathic medicine, a way of treatment that is relatively new, only a few hundred years old, if at that, as compared to medicine that has been practiced for thousands of years. </span></blockquote><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">(I corrected a spelling error in there because I just couldn't stand to see it). Let me point something out here. Yes, our medicine is flawed and it hasn't been practiced for very long at all. However, our average life span is significantly longer than it was 70 years ago... let alone 200 or 500! Yes, the people who lived past infancy </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: trebuchet ms;">generally</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> lived to be </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: trebuchet ms;">fairly</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> old... unless, of course, we were speaking about a woman! Obviously the generations prior did just fine, but I'd rather pass on the serious risk of DEATH in childbirth for obvious reasons. Just sayin'.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">To me, that points out that while there were a lot of things that were right back then, we are clearly improving those things today. Maybe some things will swing back that way; some already are. My point isn't that it's a bad thing if they do, but that I don't have the knowledge to make those medical decisions for myself. I decided to study literature. Millions of people decide to study nothing. They probably aren't going to be able to gather empirical data on this, either.</span><br /><br /><blockquote style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-style: italic;">This book details the methods used by the Rockefellers to control the medicinal market to their advantage. It also guarantees a level of population control....read on! You will be surprised! </span></blockquote><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Interesting... I would definitely expect that since the world's population is exponentially larger than it has been previously, that probably they're not working to control population. Unless of course they're working to control the population via keeping adequate MODERN care from impoverished countries because some people believe that they don't have as much right to those services for whatever (racist) reason. Because, seriously, there is NO population control in the United States that I can see being of any benefit. In fact, it is generally the most poor and uneducated who have large families (with some notable exceptions, obviously, allowing for religious reasons).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">On the other hand, I absolutely believe that the medical industry has an agenda - I mean, honestly, it's more lucrative for them to treat diseases than to cure them. I wish that wasn't the truth, but I'm sure it is in some cases.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">But seriously, it all being controlled by the Rockefellers? Granted, I know as much about their current financial state as I do about heart surgery, but to pinpoint one family who hasn't been considered THAT powerful since, like, the Depression (inaccurate, I know) seems a little far-fetched.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">And this man actually makes money for publishing this crap. And people actually believe it.</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" > Of course, Ann Coulter hasn't been slapped yet, so I guess this is just another example that people will go for anything.<br /></span>Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07590827743854553217noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486359855576319841.post-7211556848549432512009-07-06T09:27:00.000-07:002009-07-06T09:31:12.456-07:00Feasible Bologna<span class="kn" dir="ltr"></span><div class="kk"> <span class="kn" dir="ltr">Laura: </span> <span dir="ltr" id=":5p">um... seriously... can you make something up?</span></div><div dir="f" class="km" role="chatMessage" live="assertive"><div class="kk"> Melissa<span class="kn" dir="ltr">: </span> <span dir="ltr" id=":5o">LOL I basically am.

Thompson that had me confused, splitting my gut with laughter, terrified, and hooked on Gonzo journalism within moments.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">And now for you, miss Betsey.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I love you. I love your clothing. I've wanted to wear your stuff since I was twelve, back in the dark ages. You have a fantastic quirky attitude and the pieces you design belong in my imagination of all kinds of satistfying Gaiman fantasy novels.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">But last year at Fashion Week.... </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" >seriously</span><span style="font-family:arial;">?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">These two infatuations of varying depth should never, ever, E.V.E.R. meet.</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/slideshow/S2009RTW-BJOHNSON/?loop=0&amp;iphoto=44&amp;play=false&amp;cnt=51"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 276px; height: 414px;" src="http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashionshows/S2009RTW/BJOHNSON/RUNWAY/00490m.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;font-family:arial;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Avast there, mateys!</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Send the poofey one up the crow's nest!</span><br /></div><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Indulge me for a minute.

Oh dear, he would quickly be "unseamed ... from nave to th' chops / and fixed his head upon our battlements" except of course ships don't really have battlements. At least I don't think they do, it's not like I've been on one or something. <br />But seriously. He's skinny, which could be quite helpful, but he negates all ability to show how he could aid the fiercer pirates with that little pucker.<br />And I respect anyone who can rock an eye patch without looking ridiculous, but his appears as if he winks obscenely, but a regular wink just wasn't <span style="font-style: italic;">quite</span> enough. OK, that is not true, but thinking that even momentarily gave me the inspiration to liken him to Adam Lambert, and I couldn't pass up that opportunity. <span style="font-size:78%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">1</span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VjxToxku1Qo/SjR0vSVjsLI/AAAAAAAAB7E/v72H7xHYlkA/s1600-h/adam-lambert-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 251px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VjxToxku1Qo/SjR0vSVjsLI/AAAAAAAAB7E/v72H7xHYlkA/s320/adam-lambert-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347027013320552626" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center; font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">That is most obviously a glitter-fied eye patch. </span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Maybe I would like our little pirate man better if he sported that, too?</span><br /></div><br /></li><li>The pirate's ruffles plus pirate-ism plus BOW-TIE?
